How many do you keep, and who are you keeping?

I'd say 3 at bare minimum - Ingram, Spiller & Hightower.

KRob is a RFA & could be signed by another team & Cadet is a FA. Marcus Murphy should return.

To be continued

I hope we get a sledge-hammer late in the draft. We need a closer.

The only RB's we have on the roster at the moment are Ingram, Spiller and Murphy. I don't know where the downsizing would occur.

KRob is a RFA and will probably get the min tag. Cadet is more value imo than Murphy or Spillers. Cut those 2 and sign Cadet and Hightower. Who cares the cap hit if the RB's play like crap. I would rather trade MI for a 3rd, cut spiller and Murphy. Then I would resign Cadet, Hightower and KRob. Hightower plays with heart and is thankful for the chance.

I'd go Ingram, Hightower, Robinson and Cadet keeping 4 backs. I'd use Cadet a lot.

We always keep a lot of RB's. We have to many go down all the time.

Finding cheap replacements maybe??? But I don't see us not having that many on the roster.

Give me Ingram, Robinson, Hightower and Spiller(we can't afford to cut him). Cadet can walk again for all I care. He was not productive here initially and even though he looked better I am too used to him disappointing me.
